1. Bruce Dern is too old for that now?

Sorry. Couldn't resist.

2. It still could happen, but soft targets are working well. As to transport, some forms remain

unsecured.
Concerts, since the domestic terror massacre in Las Vegas, get more high level security than ever before.

3. Because it didn't happen.

It's called complacency.

I suspect that terrorists know that if they do something bad at a concert they're likely to be okay, but in a stadium at a sports even they'd be bludgeoned to death with beer bottles.

4. Security is far higher at any professional football/baseball game than before.

Scanning and metal detectors are routine.
